Rocky Movie Anthology
| ROCKY |
|---|
| PLOT SUMMARY |
|---|
Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone) is a small-time boxer who
seems to be going nowhere in life, as he works day-in and day-out as a
collector for a loan
shark and fights in sleazy clubs for low-paid reward, to which Rocky is mocked
and told that he's nothing but a 'bum,' especially by gym trainer Mickey
Goldmill (Burgess Meredith). At the same time, Rocky successfully courts Adrian Pennino
(Talia Shire), a painfully shy woman with an alcoholic brother, Paulie (Burt
Young). But when heavyweight champion of the world Apollo
Creed (Carl Weathers) chooses Rocky at random as his opponent in a title fight,
Rocky realizes he now has the chance to prove he is not worthless. With
Adrian's support and Mickey becoming his trainer and manager, Rocky fights for
his self-respect.

| PLOT SUMMARY |
|---|
Soon after proving himself, even with a split decision loss
to Apollo Creed, Rocky expects the good life to follow. He marries Adrian and
begins spending the money he earned from the match. But after he fails at both
endorsements and a series of low-wage jobs, Rocky realizes the only way he can
survive is to begin boxing again. Creed on the other hand, faces criticism from
fans to overcome the fight. As a result, he taunts Rocky publicly into a
rematch, for which Rocky trains once again with Mickey. In the fifteenth round,
Rocky knocks Creed to the ground, falling to the canvas himself in the process.
Both fighters struggle to get to their feet, but only Rocky is successful. For
the first time, Rocky is declared the World Heavyweight Champion.

| ROCKY III |
|---|
| PLOT SUMMARY |
|---|
After winning the heavyweight title, Rocky takes advantage of
his newfound wealth and fame, appearing in multiple advertisements and
television programs, and relishing his new celebrity. After defending the title
multiple times, he is prepared to retire, but the number one contender, James "Clubber" Lang (played by Mr. T), challenges Rocky publicly. Rocky, after dealing with
Mickey's heart attack before the fight, is overpowered by the stronger,
hungrier Lang and is knocked out in the second round. Mickey passes away after
the fight, and former rival Apollo Creed steps in, training Rocky to fight more
in Creed's old style (and in his old Los Angeles gym) and use more guile and
skill. In the rematch, Rocky outboxes Lang, tiring the stronger fighter out and
eventually knocking him out in the third round. After the fight, Apollo calls
in his "favor" for training Rocky, which is a one-on-one match between
the two of them with no cameras, no media, just man vs. man in the gym. The
film ends as they each throw their first punch.

| ROCKY IV |
|---|
| PLOT SUMMARY |
|---|
After winning back the title from Clubber Lang, Rocky decides
to spend some time with his family. However, destiny has other plans for him which
doesn't allow him to leave the ring. A new fighter from the USSR, Ivan
Drago (played by Dolph
Lundgren), has emerged and
challenges Rocky to an exhibition match. Apollo fights instead, and the beating
he takes from Drago ends with Apollo dying in Rocky's arms in the ring as Drago
coldly watches. To avenge Apollo, Rocky challenges Drago to a match, which is
to be held on Christmas Day in Moscow. In a montage replete with symbolism,
Rocky is shown training in a remote cabin in Siberia with the help of Creed's
old trainer Duke, his brother-in-law Paulie, and eventually Adrian, doing
exercises such as chopping wood, lifting rocks, running in the snow and
climbing a mountain, while Drago is seen in an advanced training facility
running on treadmills, utilizing weightlifting machines and injecting steroids
to boost his strength. During the fight, Rocky takes the worst beating of his
life but refuses to fall, eventually winning over the foreign crowd with his
display of courage and determination and he knocks Drago out with seconds left
in the final round.

| ROCKY V |
|---|
| PLOT SUMMARY |
|---|
In the aftermath of his fight with Ivan Drago, Rocky Balboa
is diagnosed with brain damage and is forced to retire from the ring.
Additionally, the Balboa fortune is all gone due to an unscrupulous accountant.
Rocky's family returns to their old neighborhood: Adrian returns to the pet
store she used to work at, while (in a subplot) Rocky (Robert) Jr. (played by
Sylvester Stallone's real
son Sage) deals with
bullying at his school and Rocky re-opens Mickey's old gym. While training
other boxers, Rocky meets a young, hungry boxer named Tommy Gunn (played by real-life fighter Tommy
Morrison) and begins
training him which results in a strained relationship with Robert.
Unfortunately, as Tommy begins his rise to fame under Rocky's wing, a sleazy
fight promoter named George Washington Duke convinces Tommy that Rocky is
holding him back and Tommy leaves Rocky for Duke. After Tommy wins the
heavyweight title, he makes a short speech thanking Duke, and is met with jeers
and the familiar chant of "Rocky" from the crowd. Seething from this
insult, as well as being called by publicists as "Rocky's robot" and
being told that he's "no Rocky Balboa," Tommy decides to seek out his
former mentor for a final showdown. Rocky starts to walk away from the public
challenge, but Paulie decides to let Tommy have a piece of his mind about how
Tommy has treated Rocky after which Tommy punches Paulie. Rocky then challenges
Tommy outside. The two proceed in a violent bare-knuckle street brawl, which
Rocky wins. Rocky then proceeds to punch Duke for harassing him. In the end,
Rocky and Robert reconcile as they run up the steps as father and son.

| PLOT SUMMARY |

In Rocky Balboa, sixteen years have passed since his final fight with his
former protégé, Tommy "The Machine" Gunn. Long retired, Rocky Balboa
still staggers around an ever-changing world; his son is grown and distant,
Paulie is working back at the meat plant, and Rocky's wife Adrian has died.
Rocky has opened a restaurant named after his wife, which he stocks with
mementos of his prime as he tells his old fight stories to customers. But when
a computer simulated fight on ESPN depicting
a bout between a young Rocky Balboa and the current champion, Mason Dixon (Antonio
Tarver) reignites interest in the faded boxer, Rocky discovers he
has not lost his fighting spirit and considers an opportunity to prove himself
in the ring again. Rocky almost wins the fight but loses in a split decision
just like the first film. Rocky is last seen visiting his wife's grave saying,
"Yo Adrian, we did it."
